If you want to change your smile’s appearance, veneers in Middletown might be an excellent way to achieve your goals!
They are a very popular cosmetic dentistry procedure that can address a wide variety of smile concerns. But, if you’ve been researching getting veneers, you may know they are not a good option for everyone.
This article can help you figure out if you’re a good candidate for veneers!
Veneers are a thin layer of porcelain that gets bonded on the front surface of the patient’s natural teeth.
To get veneers, the dentist will have to shave a bit of tooth enamel, but just enough to create a rougher surface texture. This new texture allows the veneer to properly bond to the tooth, and remain in place for decades.
If you’ll get veneers, you can enjoy a variety of benefits:
- Dramatic results - Veneers can completely change your smile’s look and cover anything from tooth discoloration to misshapen teeth, irregularly sized teeth, and even mild cases of tooth chips and cracks;
- Long-lasting makeover - When properly maintained, veneers can last around 10-15, maybe even more;
- Natural effect - Veneers are custom-made and can offer a perfectly even and natural smile;
- Low maintenance procedure - All you need to do is brush and floss your teeth regularly, and you’ll keep your veneers in pristine condition.
Veneers are an excellent way to enhance your smile. However, they may not be the right solution for you.
Here’s what you need to consider to find out if you’re a good candidate for veneers:
- Your oral health - If you have generally good oral health, then you’re likely a good candidate for veneers. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to get this procedure if you’re dealing with cavities, gum disease, or other oral health issues. Will dentist will first need to restore your oral health, then schedule you for veneers;
- Your commitment - Veneers are an irreversible procedure since you need to shave a bit of tooth enamel, which does not regenerate. This requires a commitment to wearing veneers for the rest of your life, which some patients might not be comfortable with. Luckily, there are other cosmetic treatments that don’t involve such a commitment;
- Your cosmetic issues - If you’re only dealing with minor imperfections, you might not need veneers at all. Dental bonding could be a great alternative to changing the appearance of your teeth.
